How do you know who found him? For all we know at this point he could have finally died in a cave somewhere from kidney failure and found by mountain farmers.




A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

And no, US doesn't have the body :) They apparently buried him at sea, already, to avoid his grave being a tourist attraction for terrorists or whatever.

The photo going around and shown on the news here is a photoshop from a long while back, I knew it looked familiar. It was some shit circling around ages ago. So I'm waiting for some sort of conclusive proof he's dead, and it was because of an attack in the past 24-36 hours not several years ago.

Best news to come out of this, reminded me of this song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DiQrsMSMHI

This is good news and I hope it offers some sort of closure for all the families that have been affected by that scum bag.

The President's speach was eloquent and well put. This is indeed a good day for all of us and holds implications for major changes to current policy. It has had a direct and immediate impact in my line of work and I would like to say HOOYAH to those with the brass balls big enough to go in and get this guy. Justice has finally been served to those who lost so much throughout the last two decades due to this criminal and I hope it helps them to find a bit of closure and peace. I would also like to state for those naysayers, after all he had done, we still had the decency to give him a proper Muslim burial, what other nation or group would have done the same to someone so reviled by them? Think about it...............

another bad guy down.....he's still pretty low on the list of people fucking us who need to go. I was fairly indifferent when I heard the news, he was so old & in bad health he woulda (or maybe did) die in a cave of natural causes. I think there's far bigger villains out there for the people of the world, I really could give a fuck less about any sense of patriotism or nationalism that most people are celebrating because of this, the people of the world need to rise up & put aside our differences & take out the people who really run the show....too bad it's not at all that easy though

Did it offend or bother you in any way that Obama thanked/gave well wishes to the victims of 9/11, to their families, to the operatives who carried out the attack, the intelligence community.. basically everyone and not a single mention of the troops fighting the war and dying for the past 10 years?

Because that bothered me. Ignore the people who played the frontline role.

Being tossed overboard isn't a proper Muslim burial from what I know.......but who cares in his case.

There's millions of normal peaceful Muslim people who that guy brought heat on.

He was a monster that needed to get put down.

Seeing him hang like Saddam would have been more satisfying though.

The world's a better place, at least for a minute.

Anyone who thinks this is gonna change a damn thing is pretty naive, and has vastly underestimated the size and scope of militant Islamism. It has deep roots in more countries than people realize and is spurred on by martyrs, not stopped by them. I know that comes across as an insult Chris but it's not meant to be.

Does anyone else find it strange in the least that no one bothered to A) Capture the man alive at least momentarily or B) Take a photo of the body of one of the most infamous/hated men on the planet in a well planned raid. Obviously there was enough of him left recognizable to officially declare him dead. So this had been in the planning stages for a couple months but that didn't occur to anyone at all? Seriously?

As far as the economy, the country was bought and paid for by corporations/banks/lobby groups years ago and I don't see that changing in my lifetime. A lot of planning went into the way things ended up in that respect and nothing but full scale revolt is gonna change it.

I'm still waiting to see the body. This is a good article too about how Bin Laden died winning, or won. http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2011/05/02/neil-macdonald...

Photos may come soon - http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/05/03/3206223.htm

No, I didn't get that sense from his speach.

As many have attested in recent days... the events dubbed the "Arab Spring" have kind of put the lie to the Islamist project. Arab youth are moved by something entirely different, have shown they can mobilize the numbers necessary to get shit done, and done it without blowing up their own markets or themselves. Basically, Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain etc are one big "fuck you" to al-Qa'ida and their ilk as much as it is to the US and other world powers that have put their support behind those dictatorial regimes. The so-called "jihadists" have nothing. They have accomplished exactly nothing, and they have a bankrupt ideology and interpretation/bastardization of Islam to boot.

The most successful "Islamist" organization there is, and probably ever has been, is Hezbollah... and they are far more pluralistic than anyone in the US, Europe or Israel or even the surrounding Arab countries are willing to admit to. And their ideology continues to evolve in order to operate in the political realities of Lebanon, rather than keeping with some absolutist ideology of forcing an Islamic state on peoples unwilling.

I don't see much changing because of Bin Laden's death. I'm perhaps either too realistic or too cynical to think so. And the real problem I see is how none of this, not a decade of warfare in 2 countries and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of innocent lives lost to suicide bombs, IEDs, drone attacks, guided missiles, smart bombs, cluster bombs, tank shells, and bullets and generally making people hate "us" MORE has sent a message to the United States government and its allies about how we conduct our foreign policies. Not even the mass peaceful revolutions in Egypt and Tunisia have sent that message. So nothing will change. The US will continue to back the bastards in any region we have a geo-political and economic interest in. And anyone that wants to deal with us on equal terms, rather than the terms we dictate to them, will find very quickly that our government(s) is more than willing to undermine any democratic change they attempt to effect.

Apparently he wasn't even armed and it was an assassination mission, not a capture if possible mission.
